Ok, so far these are what I see that needs work. The tutorial balloon can't display some text sometimes when it is too long. It would also be helpful sometimes if it changed positions so as not to block whatever it is talking about. It would also be helpful to have some sort of description for what each building and upgrade is. Then some way to see the overall statistics that we have so far. I'll see if I can give some more suggestions after I progress some more. :)

At the end I have to say that the relationship aspect of the story was not satisfactory.
I might accept how shallow Julia is at the start to supposedly make room for character development as she gets over the instantly unlikable Antonio. Even her weird-looking friend would have been preferable. Better to replace that friend with a more attractive pic imo.
And then the relationship with that friend never developed and in the abrupt end, disappointingly it seems like Julia still lets herself get roped in by Antonio instead. It also really did not feel like a proper ending at all so I would actually hope it ended prematurely and the ending with Antonio was not intended to be the actual ending.

5/5
-1: Gets boring, same strategy over the whole game
-1: The end
-1: Missing missions - I'd say ok, lets play on their site, but u dont give any hints about anything...

Great game. Clearly unfinished, though.
Suggestion: I would like to see a free-play mode. Just a big grid with no time limit. There's no reason to play again after you've "completed" it as it is.

I loved the game. Kept me so addicted I never stopped until I finished. Wish there were more free games like this out there. The graphics were great and it was hard enough to keep it interesting but not to hard so that it was frustrating I really hope that you make another one like it:)

You can go back and play levels (1 and 2 are the fastest) to get more money to upgrade the buildings - it's a grind, but seems to be the only real way; once a goal is met (i.e. build 6 cabins), it seems that you can then knock down those cabins to try to meet another goal - that's the only way I passed the ice rink level; some levels seem unpassable until several upgrades have been made in the Build menu; REALLY needs a Why the Hell is this Building Empty? button

eh, games moderately fun. Only complaint is that the upgrades outside the game have no explanation as to what they do.

Considering whether to spend $10 on the full game. It's available for sale at http://www.bigfishgames.com/download-games/9175/ski-resort-mogul/index.html.

Could you also include an indicator of some sort to show how many can be accommodated? It would then be easier planning how many of which lines one would need to build.

Just before the part where the logical matching game is presented, Julia's and her aunt's text are merely the same. Then in the matching game itself, the tiles flip back too quickly after choosing the second card so that you barely see what is even on the second card. It should have a sufficient pause before it does that.

Oh yeah, can't you also please be able to cancel building? Even if you have to consider factors like only partial return of resources if building has already commenced. And having to press Esc to deselect building mode is too vague for some. You might include clicking outside a plot as a quicker and more obvious deselect method.

It also appears that upon completing the missions, you can no longer work towards the other awards. I've built 8 ski schools and still can't get the award for building 4. I've replayed 10 of the missions, meaning I've built at least 40 additional profit bearing buildings, no "70 Profitable Buildings" award. Had I known it would lock me out of getting the other awards, I wouldn't have finished the missions.

I agree with Marcus. Did you guys just get bored or rushed and decide not to finish the story? You built up a really cute story line, and then it's like you just forgot to finish it. Such a shame. Aside from that, gameplay was nice!

Bug with pressing spacebar to win needs to be fixed. Besides that I am probably 10 levels in and dont know why this game isnt rated higher

Wild tangent is so gonna sue. Similarities are one thing, identical though... I actually wish you'd been more original simply so I could play a different spin, a different game.
